Irresistible

Imagine being able to travel back into time and be welcomed into the intimate bedrooms of the most notorious women ever to embarrass history. Well it happens to Walter Brooks thanks to Miracle Myers' time machine – just when he needs it most. First, Walter finds himself alone with the sultry Cleopatra who draws Walter into the steaming depths of her inner, secret pleasures. From there he travels to explore the innocent young flower, Juliet, with Romeo courting her from beneath her window. This seduction is so successful, however, that Juliet falls in love with Walter and follows him back to the 20th Century, creating a paradox in paradise and putting Walter in deep trouble.

Directed by Edwin Brown, Irresistible leans on a strong ensemble — Richard Pacheco, Samantha Fox, Dorothy LeMay — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about science fiction titles of 1982.
